Excited to move into your new place? Don't be jumping up and down just yet as you may not have realized the painful process of that big move.
While the actual move can truly become exhausting, the planning doesn't have to be. Here are 4 mobile apps for a hassle-free house move by Trulia:
Home Inventory Photo Remote
So you have packed everything; well and good. But, once you arrived in your new place to start unpacking, you are suddenly facing that huge pile of whatnots that you don't know where to put. This app called Home Inventory Photo Remote allows you to take a photo of your items, group them by category, collection, and even location so you know where things should go and where they belong to. It could also serve as an inventory of your things should you end up needing to file for an insurance claim.
My Move
For savvy house movers who like to really do their assignment, this app, My Move, is perfect for you. With this app, you can read informative moving company reviews, complete a moving checklist for every step of the process, as well as calculate the weight of your things you plant to take with you, and more. It's an app that movers who are particular with budget and calculating potential costs will find helpful. My move helps you plan your move on your own terms - and your budget.
Moving Checklist Pro
A smooth house move is achievable by having a complete moving checklist, and Moving Checklist Pro can help you on that. This app comes with a list of 200+ common household moving items, but you can customize a list and add things such as schools to research, services to cancel or items to return. The cool part is, Jimbl Software Labs, the company behind the app, is willing to give you a refund if you won't find your use of the app helpful or satisfying.
Bonus: Gogobot
Referred to as the "Pandora of Travel" by TechCrunch and named "one of the best apps to travel" by Mom Aboard, Gogobot is the perfect app when you are on the road for a house move. It's an app that offers personalized recommendations on where to eat, play, and stay while on your journey.
